As the bodies start falling, Jim finds himself being pursued by both the murderer and the police in this classic slice of highway terror. 2 _______________________________ When business man David Mann innocently tries to overtake a gas tanker while driving across California, little does he know that he’s in for a journey from hell as the truck driver relentlessly pursues him in a cat and mouse chase for the rest of the film. Spielberg’s first feature film shows the early promise of a great director. 3 ______________________________ Perhaps the classic road movie of all time. Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper on motorbikes searching for the “real” America. As they make their way from LA to New Orleans, they meet an array of characters including the unforgettable George Hanson, a role which brought one Jack Nicholson to the attention of the world. 4 ____________________________ Britney Spears stars in her first film role in this coming-of-age road movie which sees three friends getting in their car to drive to LA to try and find fame and fortune there. 5 ______________________________ A group of drivers from very different backgrounds get together to compete in the top secret, no-rules race across America in the original cross-country screwball comedy. Often imitated (most noticeably by Burt Reynolds’s “Cannonball Run”), but never bettered. 6 ______________________________ Two women decide to leave their boring lives behind them and get out on the road to see the world for a weekend. Unfortunately, things take a turn for the worse when one of them kills the would-be rapist of her friend. From now on it’s a race to Mexico with half the American police force behind them. 107 5 Extensive unit 5: Route 66 Nur zu Prüfzwecken – Eigentum des Verlags öbv
